As the team’s primary sponsor, Etihad Airways has agreed to a three-year contract with CSK that will cover events and platforms and also guarantee that the airline’s logo is displayed on players’ jerseys.
Etihad Airways is the first airline in the United Arab Emirates to operate an Airbus A320neo. In December, the aircraft will make its first flight at Chennai, the home base of CSK. This aircraft will operate Etihad’s short-haul routes. As a way to show their dedication to the Indian market, Etihad Airways Chief Revenue and Commercial Officer Arik De expressed happiness in the cooperation with CSK and the joy cricket offers to many people throughout the world, as reported by Business Today.
